Subject: silver mount elegies are back !
Even though the sound is not incredible, it remains very good...

But the performance here is far better than the maroquinerie's one. More powerful, direct : a great show

Notes

Silver Mt. Zion is a group led by founding godspeed you black emperor! guitarist Efrim, together with other godspeed members Sophie and Thierry.

For the band's second and third records, the line-up expanded to seven players,

including Becky, Ian, Scott and Jessica, and the band re-named as The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra-la-la Band With Choir.

An impressive feature is the use of the string section as a fully integral part of the band, rather than the more tacked-on affairs

that turn perfectly good songs into power ballads. The two violinists, cellist and double bassist added a dimension to the sound

that could in no way be created by traditional rock instruments, and their usage in the bands sound is inventive,

fascinating and above all a real joy to watch and listen to.



Back in Europe after a long lasting break A Silver Mt. Zion will perform as Thee Silver Mountain Elegies 7 shows in october.

Opening act and part of the Elegies are label mates HangedUp.
